Slight delay guys, sorry for this, this is due to a memory loss in me =]

Had a driving test in Chippenham this morning, I actually thought it was tomorrow, so the original plan was to sort out the page this morning. The new plan is to work on it tonight and have it all finished by tomorrow.

Sorry.

I've driven in Melksham, nice place. Obviously has potential if the service was increased.

Take Care Smiley

Out of the stations I have chosen to do times for it is just Reading left, for obvious reasons it will take time, but I expect it to be ready this evening.

thanks for this information Ollie.  It is a real shame that you are doing it voluntarily and that there is no official FGW (First Great Western) source

Page has been updated, later than planned but other things got in the way.

And yeah I'm not sure why they stopped posting the alterations booklets online.

Would be great if they did. I can understand not printing them anymore to keep costs down but surely a revised timetable has to be compiled for staff use and for Network Rail staff so why not put it online? GNER (Great North Eastern Railways) do.
